Welcome Episode, with your host Peta Bastian

Welcome to The Queenager Diaries, and meet your host, Peta Bastian.In this intro episode, Peta shares how this podcast came to life, and true to form, it started with a voice note into her phone rather than lights, camera, microphone, and a whole lot of overthinking. Because as it turns out, that’s where her magic lives.Peta unpacks a little of her background in human design (she’s been a reader for eight years and had an entire business built around it) and shares a fascinating insight about her own design: she’s built to speak straight from the heart, in the moment, unfiltered. Which makes the fact that she’s also a recovering perfectionist absolutely, perfectly, hilarious.This podcast is her diary, shared out loud. You’ll hear perspectives, philosophies, wisdom, and real-time life unfolding, from a 51 year old woman who has genuinely lived. There’s no polished intro, no fancy outro, and the audio might occasionally be a little rough around the edges. And that is entirely the point.Her mantra? KISS. Keep It Simple Sweetheart.Subscribe, come along for the ride, and enjoy watching it unfold in real time. Because honestly, Peta has no idea where it’s going either, and that’s exactly what makes it worth listening to. This is a public episode.
